Now here’s the story...

ONE of Kinsale’s best-known and largest bar/nightclubs, An Seanachaí, is for sale for a receiver, guiding €450,000 and with best and final offers sought by this day next month — so, skates on.

Set on Main Street, and with a distinctive and typically Kinsale feature slate-hung facade, it has over 6,000 sq ft of space, and dual access, with a rear entry from Market Quay.

The pub hanged hands around 2006/2007 for a c €2 million sum, and was one of several Kinsale bars (including the Folk House and Bulman) selling then for €2m-€3m sums, which bucked the national trend of bar sale slumps.
